Man dies after falling into US mine shaft
None
A man has died after falling into a mine shaft so deep and treacherous that rescuers had to abandon efforts to reach him while he was still alive, officials said Saturday.
Devin Westenskow, 28, worked at a geothermal drilling operation in Nevada and had gone exploring Wednesday with two friends during his off-hours when he fell 190 feet (58 meters) into the open shaft northeast of Reno, authorities said. (AP)
